Roatan IDC Testimonials
Below testimonials speak for
themselves. Bruce Crocker, Canada - March 2011 IDC Well, it's been an eventful time since I started here as a Divemaster intern at the beginning of February. Thanks to your wonderful instructor, Laurie and all the staff at Palmetto Bay, I was able to realize my dream of becoming a Divemaster. And to realize; it in time to enroll in the IDC course starting on March 13th. With the superb guidance and tutelage of Course Director, Lior I was able to be successful in the Instructor Exams this past Thursday and Friday. So, not only did I gain Divemaster status but I was able to go further and gain Instructor status. On April 9th, my flight departs Roatan for home in Guelph, where I will then be able to begin teaching SCUBA...first to my own children and then to anyone else who is interested. Thank you, Patrick and your team at Subway Watersports.
Irma Korb, South Africa - January 2011 IDC
Craig Nutting, USA - November 2010 IDC
The IDC training by Course Director Lior Beser was excellent. The other IDC candidate & I both commented how much better prepared we were than the other IE students from other training centers in Roatan.

From
the busy city life of South Africa to the calm waters of the
Caribbean. This is where my journey to become an Openwater
Instructor led me. And I couldn't have picked a better place. I
was received with open arms from the Team at Subway Watersports.
From the first day I met the course director I knew that I made
the right choice. As far as diving knowledge goes this guy has
to be the Yoda of diving! I felt at ease from the beginning of
my training up to the point I got my Certification as an
Instructor. I am still amazed at his patience with me throughout
the entire course. I would recommend anyone serious about diving
to do their courses with Lior Beser, he is by far the best
Instructor and Course Director I have ever met. And I say this
with confidence coming from two previous diving institutions and
eleven years of diving experience! Thanks Subway and many thanks
Lior.
"IDC with Loir was both
challenging and fun. His enthusiasm for diving and teaching is
apparent and contagious. While the course was intense and very
thorough it was also paced out just right. There was plenty of
time to review and gain confidence any areas that I wasn’t sure
about. What I like most about doing the course with Lior was his
commitment to making good instructors, not just preparing you to
pass the exam. His years of experience are evident. He is able
to help you to see the real world application to every thing
that you are learning. When it came time for the exam I felt
prepared and new exactly what to expect on the exam and for
beginning and diving career.
I was in the October 2010 IDC with Lior as my
course director at Subway Watersports. Not only did I pass but
the entire group passed and had a great time doing it. Lior
prepared us thoroughly for the IE and helped us prepare for real
world teaching after the IE. Just want to say thanks again to
Lior and the guys at Subway for a great time. I hope to make it
back to visit some time soon.
Everette
was great! A delight to learn from! He explains everything in such
an easy way. It really shows that he cares. I was really impressed
with his experience and knowledge. There isn't a thing that he can't
relate to. It makes you as a student feel comfortable that you are
receiving what ya paid for. A great education! I did my Divemaster
certification 7 months prior to my IDC. So, my theory was rusty,
Everette helped me study after class. He really cares about his
students and strives for everyone to pass the IE. It was a pleasure
and honor to learn under Everette. He is everything I could ask for
in a PADI Silver Course Director!
I
truly believe there are few Course Directors who will prepare you
for the IE and beyond better than Everette. When I showed up to the
IE, I was understandably nervous, but as you move through the phases
you get less and less stressed because the IDC was actually harder
than the IE! He is always up to date on standards, and adapts his
teaching to ensure that you're getting a complete education. I was
pleased that our training was beyond the basics. CFC and AED
instructor credentials are provided as well. I believe that Subway
has fairly good value when it comes to the IDC, and is competitively
priced in comparison to other places. I would definitely recommend
taking the IDC with Subway simply for the fact that it is being
taught by one of the best Course Directors in the business, don't
hesitate, take the Subway to Adventure!
I
signed up for the course last minute and was very happy that I did.
I was lucky enough to get Everette as my teacher. He covered
everything in such a fun and easy atmosphere and made the material
seem simple. Even the practice teaching sessions were fun.
Everette was patient and thorough. He really made the class fly by
while teaching us everything we needed to know for the exam. With
all the practice I got, I feel very confident that I can teach
diving successfully. 
Just
PASSED my IE which I had no doubt I would, being that our course
director Everette has a 100% pass rate. Everette is very
knowledgeable at what he does and makes sure that you are 100% ready
for the IE. After finishing my IDC with Subway Watersports under the
guidance of their new course director (Everette) the IE was a
breeze!!! I want to thank everyone at Subway Watersports especially
Everette for making it fun and being sure we were all super prepared
for the IE. I would also like to thank Sharon, Michael and Patrick
for all they have done for me.
